Seven Thousand Miners About Their Leader Assure That Victory Would Follow j; Perseverence Defeat Would Fasten Their Bonds on Them More Tightly Than Ever In the Event of Failure They Would Have to Make Good What the Operators Had Lost The Miners Renewed Their Pledges of Steadfastness. Scranton, Fa., August 1. The first of the strikers' mass meetings, planned to take place at the various strike centers, was held today in Round Woods. Seven thousand strikers were present : from nil nart of the citv and the nd- i joining towns, some of the locals hav- i ing marched four miles to the meeting j headed by band or drum corps and carrying fiags arid banners. National President John Mitchell and several distinguished officials delivered addresses. The crowd enthusiastically cheered all the speakers, and fairly i went wild over Mitchell. When he was introduced to speak some one shouted "Hats off," and although the sun's rays beat down so intensely that many were carried from the crowd exhausted, every man in the vast assemblage bared his head and remained uncovered until the speech was 'concluded. Then I the crowd surged about the platform, and shook hands until Mitchell was almost exhausted. j Mr. Mitchell's speech was brief, and i dealt oniy -with the live issues of the ! fight. He said in part: "It has been I said by si.nie who are not your friends' that the miners of Scranton are -retails? tired of the strike, and aie about to : iv turn to work. I have ccme to find j out if this is so. 1 want to know if jou are going to return to work uis---! honoring your organizatiar and dis-: prolonged cheeis.) honoring yourselves. (Cries cf "Never, ; "i have no more doubt about it than never, no, no." "Don't you believe it." ' i have that I am standing here ad-and the like.) ' j... vou - "If the strike is iost. may God Almighty help the men. women and chil dren who depend for their subsistence on the mining of anthracite coal. If , the strike is lost, you will pay the cost t of the strike. ! "I want to say that the anthracite ; miners went on strike themselves. They voted for the strike. It was not the officers of the United Mine Workers' union who called the strike. It will ; never end until you vote it ended. "From the officers of the coal presidents in New York comes the declara- , tion that the strike would be settlea only in their own way of settling it. I would direct your attention to similar declarations made in the 1000 strike. The coal trust may be powerful and strong, but the American people whose hearts thrnh in svmnsihv with the miners' cause, are stronger than the coal trust. The American people, like a jury, have passed upon this conflict. They heard the miners' request for a betterment of conditions and the operatorV refusal. They heard the miners' proposition to arbitrate and the operators' further refusal. Ninety per cent of the people have agreed that (the miners are right and the operators wrong.

An easier market Scranton Gathered to Hearj faction and misunderstanding about the distribution of the relief fund. The operators have sent men among you to urge you to be dissatisfied. Through newspapers they have told you you were dissatisfied. We havft sent a circular to all locals which will explain in detail the plans icr the distribution of relief, and I trust that when you hear it read there will be an end to the dissatisfaction and misunderstanding. While we have not got millions, e have enough to see to it that no miner will starve during the eontinj- ence of the strike. (Loud cheers.) "I want to appeal to men with means to refrain frcm applying for relief. Let the funds be used by those v.-.ho are in absolute need of help. Be patient with your committees. Put your shoul der to the wheel and do your uest anil Jur share of the work. Don't depend altogether cn your officers to win your fight. If we are to win, we must all help. "One among you who vijlates the law is the worst enemy you have. No one is more pleased than the operators in New York to hear of disorder in the coal regions. 1 want our men lo exercise the lights that inure to them under the laws, but 1 want no man to transgress the laws. "The strike will be won. (Loud and "The operators are trj ing ta make it r appear that the rtriKe is beginning to jreak up. There is a saying that those who come from afar can lie with impunity. At Shan.okin the operators tell the strikers that the men at Wilk-esbarre are returning to work. At Wilkesbarre they tell them that the men at Shamokin are returning. At other plates they tell them that the men at Scranton are weakening. I fail to see any signs of weakening here. (Laughter ana applause.) "This is possibly the last time I ever will talk to you. I want you to listen to me. I want to impress upon you the importance of winning this strike. If you win, and you surely will win, there will be no more strikes. There will be a basis adjustment arrived at which will prevent strikes. If you lose the strike the uperu tors will make you pay for their strike losses by reducing your wages. And if you lose the strike you lose your t rganixution. 1 trust and hone and constantly pray that you will stand as you did in 1'joO, and cries of "We will.")

' SHENANOQArTQUIET- TROOPS WILL STAY And Put in Their Time Improving in Markmanship. Shenandoah, Pa., August 1 This was an uneventful day in Shenandoah and surrounding country. Absolute quiet prevailed everywhere, and the general feeling of uneasiness which had pre vailed is rapidly disappearing. The troops spent the day perfecting their camp arrangements, and comparative ly few cf them were in town. None are permitted cut of camp after dark. Much sympathy was expressed today by citizens generally over the death last night of Joseph Beddell as a result of the injuries received in the riot of Wednesday night. The funeral will take place on Monday afternoon, and he wili be buried with Masonic honors. The inquest on the death of Beddell was begun today, and after four witnesses had been examined the further taking of testimony was postponed until next Thursday. Brigadier General Gobin said tonight that while everything is quiet there is a feeling of unrest among the gi" army of idle men and boys. It is believed at brigade headquarters that the soldiers will stay in the field to the end of the sfrike. Targets will be put up tt nioirsw against culm banks, and it is the hope of General Gobin to- qualify as marksmen at least two regiments of the men now in camp. PLEA FoTraDLETON BY COL. GRANDALL But the Case of Arizona's Cadet Has Been Disposed of. Washington, August l.-Ex-Delegati Crandall cf Arizona was at the war de partment today in the interest of Cadet Pendleton, who was yesterday found guilty of hazing at the West Point mili- tary academy. Young Pendleton was appointed to the academy by Crandall, and he has great interest in having him retained in the academy, as he will be ready to enter the army next year. He was informed that the law in the case is very explicit and that neither the secretary of war nor the president can prevent the dismissal of a cadet who is found srlliltv of hazinir. The foregoing contains two errors. Colonel Crandall is not an ex-delegate from this territory, and he did not appoint young Pendleton to the military academy. The appointment was made by Mark Smith. Colonel Crandall was at one time an attorney of Washington. D. C, bin has been a resident of Globe for several years and is interested in mining in that part of the territory. o HE. HAMILTON'S CONDITION The Gravest Fears Entertained by His Physicians. I Grave fears of the result of the iil-j ness of Laurence H. Hamilton, secre- tary o' the board of trade, are enter-, taiutd. and his relatives have been sent j for. liver since his return from the j east, less than a month ago. Air. Hani-j ilton has been a very sick man. He has been atllicted with almost daily hemorrhages, accompanied by high temperature. At times there was an i i;nprc emer.t of his condition, and h seemed to be out of danger. Early this week the hemorrhages became more freciuent, and on Wednesday it bec ame necessary to resort to the desperate nicthoci of air pressure to stop the How of blood. This was done by the insertion of a tube into the cavilv occ upied by the iug affected, and the pumping in ot air, c ausing a collapse of the lung. The hemorrhage was arrested, and on the tallowing day there was none at all. His temperature became normal, and his physicians had reason to hope that ie would lecover. Yesterday there was a turn for the worse. At night his condition was even more desperate, and it was decided to send for his father, who had been advised a few days be-:ore of the possible outcome of his son's illness. The case is not regarded as hopeless, but the chances ure very much against his recovery. WEATHEU TODAY. Washington, August 1.

The Discovery of a New Process in Armor Plate Making Greatly In-creacing the Resistance and IU-ducinrj the Weight. Washington, August 1. The navy people hope to offset the recent developments in high explosives anil armor-pier. ing projectiles by the army through a considerable improvement in the resisting power of the armor plating of battleships. Lieutenant Clelland Davis, attached to the naval ordnance bureau, has produced an armor plate which recently was tested at the proving grounds at Bethlehem, and the results encourage the naval officials here to believe that armor plate has again overtaken the gun in the never-ending struggle for supremacy. This plate is obtained by a novel process, carbon being driver, directly into the surface of the hot plate by an intensely powerful current of electricity, the result being a face as hard as glass and of any thickness desirable, supported by a tough back which it is declared cannot be cracked. The depth of the hardening is ruled by the length of time the current plays upon the plate. It is said the average Plate can be completely treated electrically in five hours. Moreover th? plate is declared to be a third lighter for the same resisting power, which means a great saving for constructors. o MAJOR STRONG WANTS TO MAKE UP May Yohe Willing to Forgive Him if She Can Find Him. London, August 1. May Yohe spent the day at her hotel, dejectedly reading and rereading a batch of letter--! she had just received from Putnam Eradlee Strong, and in which, while urging forgiveness and beseeching news of Miss Yohe's future movements, he carefully disguised his own whereabouts. On the inside Hap of one envelope Strong wrote: "Send word by the bearer if you forgive me." On reading which Miss Yohe exclaimed: "There have been all sorts of friends here today offering me all sorts of inducements to leave here, but I care only for Bradlee; where is he? Why don't they bring him to me? Why does he write me if he does not love me? I would forgive him in a minute if he would only say that he is sorry." Miss Yohe grew hysterical. Strong's lttteis declared that he was within a day's ride of Paris, which was obscure enough to leave Miss Yohe in doubt as to whether he was in England or at i Genca. 1 'Miss Yohe had all her trunks packed i readiness to go to Paris, but the in- timation she received that Strong was not there finally decided her to remain in London. Referring to this decision. ! qtip tai.l- T don't see how T con snend another night in this miserable place, but I suppose I'll have to." Before leaving London Strong told his friends that he intended to go to the United States and never to see Miss Yohe again. It is now evident that he has changed his plans and a reconcilia-tcry meeting between him and Miss Ythe is only a matter of a few days. Such a meeting would probably have occurred already if Strong were not doubtful as to Miss Yohe's attitude in the matter of the criminal proceedings against him. KANSAS WILL PARTICIPATE In the Military Maneuvres at Fort Riley. Washington, August 1. A letter was received at the war department today from the governor of Kansas saying that the entire national guard of the state will be mobilized at Fort Riley, Kan., the latter part of September for the purpose of participating in the proposed extensive maneuvres of the regular army. So far Kansas is the only state which has accented the formal invitation of the war department to participate, and the indications are that the few states yet to be heard from will decline on the ground of a lack of funds. r REBELSTOSIN? IN COLUMBIAN WAR Repnlse 0f the Revolutionist Forces i r . -n t Panama, Colombia, August 1. The peace commissioners who left here on July 19 on the Ilritish steamer Cana to visit the revolutionary general. Her-rera, near Agua Dulce, returned to Panama at noon today. They informed a representative of the Associated Press that they were unable to fulfill their mission because a very severe engagement between Herrera's forces and the government troops had been in progress since Tuesday, July 29, .when the revolutionary forces began to attack Aeua Dulce. At 5 o'clock Thursday morning the hii hntalllons of the revolutionary forces attacked the government en- tronchment with fierce courage. The slaughter of the revolutionists is said to have been excessive and barbarous. That same afternoon a white flag was raised in their camp, and they ask"d fiir an armistice during which they i i uld bury their dead. This was granted. The losses of the rebels up to Wednesday. July 3a, were reported at over 2r.O. while the government forces had eight men killed and eleven wounded. General Moreno, one of the peace commissioners, who returned today, says the entrenchments at Agua Dule? are masterpieces of the military art. At the expiration of the time of th armistice t., ""lgagement was recommenced vi fQry a fierceness. Nine rnvernine 0&Cq f (y :'h had not taken part r ifr9ra being held in reserve teff ral Hal.'izar. governor of i - received a letter from the g.. ment general.

At ?, o'clock this afternoon he dispatched further supplies of provisions and ammunition for P.arti's army at Agua Dulce.

Harry Tracy, the fugitive desperado, is now in Eastern Washington unwounded. in good health, armed w ith four guns and 200 rounds cf ammunition, provisioned for five days and equipped with two horses. Tracy crossed the Columbia river at 5 o'clock yesterday morning, and Is now supposed to be headed toward the. Idaho line. Tracy declared that he wants to hold up a bank or rob an express car. He says that he has promised to give 'the sum of $3,000 within one year to the parties who helped him to escape frcm the Oregon penitentiary. He is making his way to the "Hole-in-the-Wall" country in Wyoming. When there he declares he would be a. thief among thieves and thinks he would be safe. o THE DEMOCRATS OF NORTH DAKOTA Put Up a Ticket and Reaffirm Time Honored Princilpes. ZZ Fargo, N. D., August 1.

LING ABOUT V Earthquake Shocks, But Very Slight Ones, Continued Yesterday, The Damage Was Not So Severe as It Was Said in the Heat of Excitement to Be Scientists Are Guessing at the Kind and Cause of the Seismic Disturbance The Displacement of Great Bodies of Gas Miles Below the Earth's Surface Is Believed to Be at the Bottom of It. Santa ' Barbara, Chi., August 1. Throughout the day until 3:10 p. m. , occasional slight earthciuake shocks were felt in Los Alamos valley. The wagon road over what is known as the Los Alamos grade, extending over the mountain into the valley, is in bad condition. Boulders and dirt were thrown from the higher elevations by tons. Persons arriving at Los Alamos from Lompoc this evening report having had great difficulty in making their way over dangerous places. Professor Larkin of Mount Lowe observatory arrived at Los Alamos this evening. Over the telephone he stated that the disturbances are of the nature known as oscillatory earthquakes. They are of a common nature. He says that it is quite probable that they are due to the sudden displacement of immense bodies of gases seven or eight miles beneath the surface of the earth. While the country about Eos Alamos gave evidence of once having been the scene of vast volcanic action, he observes nothing to indicate that any calamity of that nature is likely to occur. Professor Hilgard, president of the agricultural department of the University of California, who telephoned Attorney Leselle, advising him and the popple of Lev. Alamos to desert their homes for places of safety, and whose statements have been attributed to i-iesiueni rsenjamin iQe Wheeler under a misapprehension, has written Le- selle. stating that the advice was given BASE BALL Result of Contests in the Four Leagues Yesterday.

Reports telegraphed from this place and other sections of Santa Barbara and SaA Luis Obispo counties telling of the enormous damage done here by a series of earthquakes which have visited this county and this vicinity in particular at freciuent intervals since July 27 have been grossly exaggerated. It is an undeniable fact that there . has been an unprecedented number ot earthquakes, some of them more or less severe, but as to the report as to great fissures in the earth, upheavals of the earth and similar stories of havoc wrcught, it is enly charitable? to say they are untrue.

SWEENEY Visited Northern Lodges en Ronte Home From Shriners' Conclave. J. J. Sweeney has returned from a visit of nearly two months in San Francisco, or at least dating from the Shriners excursion to that city. Mr. Sweeney is an enthusiastic Shriner. and is grand master of the Masonic lodge of this jurisdiction, so he combined fraternal pleasures with his summer outing. Early in the spring he paid a visit to most of the Arizona lodges in southern Arizona, and on his way heme from San Francisco he visited all the lodges in northern Arizona,' completing his official tour, with the exception of Yuma, Globe and Clifton. He was very kindly treated by the northern lodges, and had a delightful time enjoying the cool weather of that section. His visit to Prescott and Jerome was made pleasant by the members of the fraternity, and he comes home good natured and happy, even if it did cost a few dollars. ,Mr. Sweeney claimed San Francisco as his home previous to coming to Arizona, and he naturally enjoyed himself in the coast metropolis. The climat? was delightful, and the opportunities for amusement were many. San Fran-' Cisco seems to be enjoying unusual prosperity, and is growing rapidly. TOBACCO HURT BY RAIN. Hartford, Aug. 1.

Seven Thousand Miners About Their Leader Assure That Victory Would Follow j; Perseverence Defeat Would Fasten Their Bonds on Them More Tightly Than Ever In the Event of Failure They Would Have to Make Good What the Operators Had Lost The Miners Renewed Their Pledges of Steadfastness. Scranton, Fa., August 1. The first of the strikers' mass meetings, planned to take place at the various strike centers, was held today in Round Woods. Seven thousand strikers were present : from nil nart of the citv and the nd- i joining towns, some of the locals hav- i ing marched four miles to the meeting j headed by band or drum corps and carrying fiags arid banners. National President John Mitchell and several distinguished officials delivered addresses. The crowd enthusiastically cheered all the speakers, and fairly i went wild over Mitchell. When he was introduced to speak some one shouted "Hats off," and although the sun's rays beat down so intensely that many were carried from the crowd exhausted, every man in the vast assemblage bared his head and remained uncovered until the speech was 'concluded. Then I the crowd surged about the platform, and shook hands until Mitchell was almost exhausted. j Mr. Mitchell's speech was brief, and i dealt oniy -with the live issues of the ! fight. He said in part: "It has been I said by si.nie who are not your friends' that the miners of Scranton are -retails? tired of the strike, and aie about to : iv turn to work. I have ccme to find j out if this is so. 1 want to know if jou are going to return to work uis---! honoring your organizatiar and dis-: prolonged cheeis.) honoring yourselves.

If , the strike is lost, you will pay the cost t of the strike. ! "I want to say that the anthracite ; miners went on strike themselves. They voted for the strike. It was not the officers of the United Mine Workers' union who called the strike. It will ; never end until you vote it ended. "From the officers of the coal presidents in New York comes the declara- , tion that the strike would be settlea only in their own way of settling it. I would direct your attention to similar declarations made in the 1000 strike. The coal trust may be powerful and strong, but the American people whose hearts thrnh in svmnsihv with the miners' cause, are stronger than the coal trust. The American people, like a jury, have passed upon this conflict. They heard the miners' request for a betterment of conditions and the operatorV refusal. They heard the miners' proposition to arbitrate and the operators' further refusal. Ninety per cent of the people have agreed that (the miners are right and the operators wrong.

An easier market Scranton Gathered to Hearj faction and misunderstanding about the distribution of the relief fund. The operators have sent men among you to urge you to be dissatisfied. Through newspapers they have told you you were dissatisfied. We havft sent a circular to all locals which will explain in detail the plans icr the distribution of relief, and I trust that when you hear it read there will be an end to the dissatisfaction and misunderstanding. While we have not got millions, e have enough to see to it that no miner will starve during the eontinj- ence of the strike. (Loud cheers.) "I want to appeal to men with means to refrain frcm applying for relief. Let the funds be used by those v.-.ho are in absolute need of help. Be patient with your committees. Put your shoul der to the wheel and do your uest anil Jur share of the work. Don't depend altogether cn your officers to win your fight. If we are to win, we must all help. "One among you who vijlates the law is the worst enemy you have. No one is more pleased than the operators in New York to hear of disorder in the coal regions. 1 want our men lo exercise the lights that inure to them under the laws, but 1 want no man to transgress the laws. "The strike will be won. (Loud and "The operators are trj ing ta make it r appear that the rtriKe is beginning to jreak up. There is a saying that those who come from afar can lie with impunity. At Shan.okin the operators tell the strikers that the men at Wilk-esbarre are returning to work. At Wilkesbarre they tell them that the men at Shamokin are returning. At other plates they tell them that the men at Scranton are weakening. I fail to see any signs of weakening here. (Laughter ana applause.) "This is possibly the last time I ever will talk to you. I want you to listen to me. I want to impress upon you the importance of winning this strike. If you win, and you surely will win, there will be no more strikes. There will be a basis adjustment arrived at which will prevent strikes. If you lose the strike the uperu tors will make you pay for their strike losses by reducing your wages. And if you lose the strike you lose your t rganixution. 1 trust and hone and constantly pray that you will stand as you did in 1'joO, and cries of "We will.")

' SHENANOQArTQUIET- TROOPS WILL STAY And Put in Their Time Improving in Markmanship. Shenandoah, Pa., August 1 This was an uneventful day in Shenandoah and surrounding country. Absolute quiet prevailed everywhere, and the general feeling of uneasiness which had pre vailed is rapidly disappearing. The troops spent the day perfecting their camp arrangements, and comparative ly few cf them were in town. None are permitted cut of camp after dark. Much sympathy was expressed today by citizens generally over the death last night of Joseph Beddell as a result of the injuries received in the riot of Wednesday night. The funeral will take place on Monday afternoon, and he wili be buried with Masonic honors. The inquest on the death of Beddell was begun today, and after four witnesses had been examined the further taking of testimony was postponed until next Thursday. Brigadier General Gobin said tonight that while everything is quiet there is a feeling of unrest among the gi" army of idle men and boys. It is believed at brigade headquarters that the soldiers will stay in the field to the end of the sfrike. Targets will be put up tt nioirsw against culm banks, and it is the hope of General Gobin to- qualify as marksmen at least two regiments of the men now in camp. PLEA FoTraDLETON BY COL. GRANDALL But the Case of Arizona's Cadet Has Been Disposed of. Washington, August l.-Ex-Delegati Crandall cf Arizona was at the war de partment today in the interest of Cadet Pendleton, who was yesterday found guilty of hazing at the West Point mili- tary academy. Young Pendleton was appointed to the academy by Crandall, and he has great interest in having him retained in the academy, as he will be ready to enter the army next year. He was informed that the law in the case is very explicit and that neither the secretary of war nor the president can prevent the dismissal of a cadet who is found srlliltv of hazinir. The foregoing contains two errors. Colonel Crandall is not an ex-delegate from this territory, and he did not appoint young Pendleton to the military academy. The appointment was made by Mark Smith. Colonel Crandall was at one time an attorney of Washington. D. C, bin has been a resident of Globe for several years and is interested in mining in that part of the territory. o HE. HAMILTON'S CONDITION The Gravest Fears Entertained by His Physicians. I Grave fears of the result of the iil-j ness of Laurence H. Hamilton, secre- tary o' the board of trade, are enter-, taiutd. and his relatives have been sent j for. liver since his return from the j east, less than a month ago. Air. Hani-j ilton has been a very sick man. He has been atllicted with almost daily hemorrhages, accompanied by high temperature. At times there was an i i;nprc emer.t of his condition, and h seemed to be out of danger. Early this week the hemorrhages became more freciuent, and on Wednesday it bec ame necessary to resort to the desperate nicthoci of air pressure to stop the How of blood. This was done by the insertion of a tube into the cavilv occ upied by the iug affected, and the pumping in ot air, c ausing a collapse of the lung. The hemorrhage was arrested, and on the tallowing day there was none at all. His temperature became normal, and his physicians had reason to hope that ie would lecover. Yesterday there was a turn for the worse. At night his condition was even more desperate, and it was decided to send for his father, who had been advised a few days be-:ore of the possible outcome of his son's illness. The case is not regarded as hopeless, but the chances ure very much against his recovery. WEATHEU TODAY. Washington, August 1.

The Discovery of a New Process in Armor Plate Making Greatly In-creacing the Resistance and IU-ducinrj the Weight. Washington, August 1. The navy people hope to offset the recent developments in high explosives anil armor-pier. ing projectiles by the army through a considerable improvement in the resisting power of the armor plating of battleships. Lieutenant Clelland Davis, attached to the naval ordnance bureau, has produced an armor plate which recently was tested at the proving grounds at Bethlehem, and the results encourage the naval officials here to believe that armor plate has again overtaken the gun in the never-ending struggle for supremacy. This plate is obtained by a novel process, carbon being driver, directly into the surface of the hot plate by an intensely powerful current of electricity, the result being a face as hard as glass and of any thickness desirable, supported by a tough back which it is declared cannot be cracked. The depth of the hardening is ruled by the length of time the current plays upon the plate. It is said the average Plate can be completely treated electrically in five hours. Moreover th? plate is declared to be a third lighter for the same resisting power, which means a great saving for constructors. o MAJOR STRONG WANTS TO MAKE UP May Yohe Willing to Forgive Him if She Can Find Him. London, August 1. May Yohe spent the day at her hotel, dejectedly reading and rereading a batch of letter--! she had just received from Putnam Eradlee Strong, and in which, while urging forgiveness and beseeching news of Miss Yohe's future movements, he carefully disguised his own whereabouts. On the inside Hap of one envelope Strong wrote: "Send word by the bearer if you forgive me." On reading which Miss Yohe exclaimed: "There have been all sorts of friends here today offering me all sorts of inducements to leave here, but I care only for Bradlee; where is he? Why don't they bring him to me? Why does he write me if he does not love me? I would forgive him in a minute if he would only say that he is sorry." Miss Yohe grew hysterical. Strong's lttteis declared that he was within a day's ride of Paris, which was obscure enough to leave Miss Yohe in doubt as to whether he was in England or at i Genca. 1 'Miss Yohe had all her trunks packed i readiness to go to Paris, but the in- timation she received that Strong was not there finally decided her to remain in London. Referring to this decision. ! qtip tai.l- T don't see how T con snend another night in this miserable place, but I suppose I'll have to." Before leaving London Strong told his friends that he intended to go to the United States and never to see Miss Yohe again. It is now evident that he has changed his plans and a reconcilia-tcry meeting between him and Miss Ythe is only a matter of a few days. Such a meeting would probably have occurred already if Strong were not doubtful as to Miss Yohe's attitude in the matter of the criminal proceedings against him. KANSAS WILL PARTICIPATE In the Military Maneuvres at Fort Riley. Washington, August 1. A letter was received at the war department today from the governor of Kansas saying that the entire national guard of the state will be mobilized at Fort Riley, Kan., the latter part of September for the purpose of participating in the proposed extensive maneuvres of the regular army. So far Kansas is the only state which has accented the formal invitation of the war department to participate, and the indications are that the few states yet to be heard from will decline on the ground of a lack of funds. r REBELSTOSIN? IN COLUMBIAN WAR Repnlse 0f the Revolutionist Forces i r . -n t Panama, Colombia, August 1. The peace commissioners who left here on July 19 on the Ilritish steamer Cana to visit the revolutionary general. Her-rera, near Agua Dulce, returned to Panama at noon today. They informed a representative of the Associated Press that they were unable to fulfill their mission because a very severe engagement between Herrera's forces and the government troops had been in progress since Tuesday, July 29, .when the revolutionary forces began to attack Aeua Dulce. At 5 o'clock Thursday morning the hii hntalllons of the revolutionary forces attacked the government en- tronchment with fierce courage. The slaughter of the revolutionists is said to have been excessive and barbarous. That same afternoon a white flag was raised in their camp, and they ask"d fiir an armistice during which they i i uld bury their dead. This was granted. The losses of the rebels up to Wednesday. July 3a, were reported at over 2r.O. while the government forces had eight men killed and eleven wounded. General Moreno, one of the peace commissioners, who returned today, says the entrenchments at Agua Dule? are masterpieces of the military art. At the expiration of the time of th armistice t., ""lgagement was recommenced vi fQry a fierceness.

LING ABOUT V Earthquake Shocks, But Very Slight Ones, Continued Yesterday, The Damage Was Not So Severe as It Was Said in the Heat of Excitement to Be Scientists Are Guessing at the Kind and Cause of the Seismic Disturbance The Displacement of Great Bodies of Gas Miles Below the Earth's Surface Is Believed to Be at the Bottom of It. Santa ' Barbara, Chi., August 1. Throughout the day until 3:10 p. m. , occasional slight earthciuake shocks were felt in Los Alamos valley. The wagon road over what is known as the Los Alamos grade, extending over the mountain into the valley, is in bad condition. Boulders and dirt were thrown from the higher elevations by tons. Persons arriving at Los Alamos from Lompoc this evening report having had great difficulty in making their way over dangerous places. Professor Larkin of Mount Lowe observatory arrived at Los Alamos this evening. Over the telephone he stated that the disturbances are of the nature known as oscillatory earthquakes. They are of a common nature. He says that it is quite probable that they are due to the sudden displacement of immense bodies of gases seven or eight miles beneath the surface of the earth. While the country about Eos Alamos gave evidence of once having been the scene of vast volcanic action, he observes nothing to indicate that any calamity of that nature is likely to occur. Professor Hilgard, president of the agricultural department of the University of California, who telephoned Attorney Leselle, advising him and the popple of Lev. Alamos to desert their homes for places of safety, and whose statements have been attributed to i-iesiueni rsenjamin iQe Wheeler under a misapprehension, has written Le- selle. stating that the advice was given BASE BALL Result of Contests in the Four Leagues Yesterday.

Reports telegraphed from this place and other sections of Santa Barbara and SaA Luis Obispo counties telling of the enormous damage done here by a series of earthquakes which have visited this county and this vicinity in particular at freciuent intervals since July 27 have been grossly exaggerated. It is an undeniable fact that there . has been an unprecedented number ot earthquakes, some of them more or less severe, but as to the report as to great fissures in the earth, upheavals of the earth and similar stories of havoc wrcught, it is enly charitable? to say they are untrue.

SWEENEY Visited Northern Lodges en Ronte Home From Shriners' Conclave. J. J. Sweeney has returned from a visit of nearly two months in San Francisco, or at least dating from the Shriners excursion to that city. Mr. Sweeney is an enthusiastic Shriner. and is grand master of the Masonic lodge of this jurisdiction, so he combined fraternal pleasures with his summer outing. Early in the spring he paid a visit to most of the Arizona lodges in southern Arizona, and on his way heme from San Francisco he visited all the lodges in northern Arizona,' completing his official tour, with the exception of Yuma, Globe and Clifton. He was very kindly treated by the northern lodges, and had a delightful time enjoying the cool weather of that section. His visit to Prescott and Jerome was made pleasant by the members of the fraternity, and he comes home good natured and happy, even if it did cost a few dollars. ,Mr. Sweeney claimed San Francisco as his home previous to coming to Arizona, and he naturally enjoyed himself in the coast metropolis. The climat? was delightful, and the opportunities for amusement were many. San Fran-' Cisco seems to be enjoying unusual prosperity, and is growing rapidly. TOBACCO HURT BY RAIN. Hartford, Aug. 1.
